Abstract
Transrectal prostate biopsy represents the most accurate technique to diagnose prostate cancer. More vigilance is necessary when fluoroquinolones are given as prophylactic agents because of the increase in Escherichia coli resistant strains. We report a case of multiresistant E. coli meningitis after transrectal biopsy resulting in the death of the patient.Entities:
